Barm is the yeasty froth that forms when beer is brewed. It can be taken and uses as leavening for bread. There is a lovely circularity about the name of this beer, brewed with waste bread! Wold top are all about local ingredients grown sustainably and being energy efficient with their own turbines. They also produce cracking beers. Barm is a dry hopped lager so it is cold fermented using bottom fermenting yeast and then finished like an American IPA! This should not really work but it really does. I am drinking it on a freezing cold November night and it tastes lovely goodness knows how Barm would taste on a balmy July evening!
On the nose it is quite reserved though there is a hint of hops and an even smaller hint of aproicots. In the mouth there is a clear light stone fruit edge (Apricot, Peach, Green guage). It has a clean lager finish and leaves you hurrying for a second gulp.
